LOS ANGELES (AP) — Mike Brown is starting to run out of adjectives to describe De’Aaron Fox.
The Sacramento Kings coach might need a thesaurus with the type of season his high-scoring guard is having.
Fox tied a career high with 44 points as the Kings continued their mastery of the Los Angeles Lakers with a 130-120 victory Wednesday night. It was Fox’s seventh game this season with at least 40 points, fourth-most in the NBA.
“He was amazing. I hate using that word because to me that’s who he is,” Brown said. “It’s hard to score 44 points every single night, especially on the percentage that he did it at, but he is more than capable with his ability. It was a big game for him in a big-game environment.”
